Updated August 24, 2026

2023 Florida 1/2000 Goldback Aurum Note $130 This 2023 Florida 1 Goldback represents a unique fusion of precious metal bullion and artistic currency, containing 1/1000th of a troy ounce of 24-karat gold protected between layers of durable polyester. As the first denomination in the Florida series, the note features the personification of Spes (Hope), depicted as a pioneer woman standing in the Everglades, symbolizing the state's spirit of discovery and resilience. The intricate design includes a wealth of regional symbolism, such as the Florida panther, a roseate spoonbill, and the state flower, the orange blossom, all rendered in stunning high-detail gold foil. Unlike traditional coins, the Goldback is a flexible, spendable form of physical gold that is part of a growing movement for local, voluntary currency.
